For years, many early talent programs have relied on familiar success metrics—retention, conversion rates, participant satisfaction, and engagement scores—to demonstrate value. But in today’s environment of restructuring, AI-driven workforce transformation, and increasing financial scrutiny, those metrics alone may no longer be enough to protect programs when budgets come under pressure.

In this session, Migdalys Perez will share a framework developed from firsthand experience navigating a major corporate restructuring. You’ll learn how she designed an integrated system that evolves beyond traditional talent metrics to measure and communicate a program’s true economic impact. This session breaks down how to combine manager feedback, automation, and real-time reporting into a simple “Value Loop” that captures both talent acceleration and financial outcomes while eliminating the manual effort that often undermines data collection.

Through practical examples and easily replicable tools, you’ll see how tools in Google Forms, Apps Script automation, and live dashboards can be leveraged to create executive-ready insights that resonate with business leaders and CFOs. Most importantly, you’ll leave with a framework for identifying the data that matters most, automating its collection, and building a stronger business case for your program’s continued investment and growth.
